Garland GRASS 765 SB Manuel D'instructions page 43

Do not tilt the machine with the engine running except
in the case that you have to start cutting tall grass,
which is the only case in which you may raise the
front wheels slightly to facilitate entry of the mower to
the work area.
Note: If the grass is very high it will be difficult for
you to start the engine. If the grass is very high, you
should slightly raise the lawnmower's front wheels,
forcibly pushing down with the handle, and start
your lawnmower in this position. Once the engine
has acquired the normal engine speed slowly lower
the mower wheels while the machine starts to cut.
Alternatively, if next to the lawn area there is a flat
surface free of objects and without grass (Earth,
screed, concrete), start the lawnmower in the clear
area and entering the grass area by slightly lifting the
front wheels of the lawnmower.
If the engine's rotation speed goes into excess or
it stops, it means that the grass is too high for the
lawnmower's cutting capacity and forcing this can be
harmful to the machine. In this case, make a first cut
at the machine's maximum height and then a second
cut at the desired height.
7.4. EMPTYING THE BAG
Empty the lawnmower's bag as soon as you notice
it is full. You will notice that the bag is full because
the mower will stop picking up the cut grass as well,
leaving many remains on the ground.
Whenever you are going to empty the bag, turn off the
engine and check that the blade has stopped before
removing the bag.
1. Lift the lid from the rear exit.
2. Lift the sack.
3. Remove the bag back.
4. Empty the bag.
5. Lift the lid from the rear exit.
6. Place the bag by hooking the protrusions on the
chassis of the bag to the rear cover axle.
7.5. RECOMENDATIONS
Always cut the grass when it is dry. Avoid mowing
the lawn when it is wet after having watered or after
having rained.
Cut less than 2 cm of grass at a time. If your lawn is
very high, it is advisable to make successive passes
with the 2 cm cutting height every time. So no it will
force both machine.
Cut your lawn often, at least once a week in spring
and summer.
Do not always make the same route when mowing. It
is best to change your route to avoid the grass being
cut in the same direction.
If you need to move the mower between two lawn
areas always first switch off the mower.
Sharpening the blade: A dull blade requires more
energy. A dull blade also cuts badly and makes the
grass yellow.
To obtain a green and bushy lawn, it is necessary to
frequently cut and aerate it regularly, providing the
necessary manure or fertilizer.
The cutting frequency will depend on growth (May-
June). You will need to cut one or two times a week.
At other times of the year, it will be enough to cut it
only once a week.
